they're very easy to install guys.

Xixor, if you need help with the leds or any of it, feel free to give me a buzz.

Basically, you remove the dash face, remove the cluster surround, take the cluster off. It's about 3 screws from memory.

The front clear face of the cluster is just clipped in. once you hvae it out, you'll know how to remove it. just push the clip in with your finger nail.

The leds are easy. you just undo a few caps at the back of the cluster, and the leds are inside. Straight pull the old one out and put the new one in. just like changing a light bulb.

For the faces, just cut them out and slip them over the needle. DO NOT remove the needle, otherwise you'll f**k up the cluster.

Once my kit arrives, I'm gonna see how many LED's are needed, and place an order with this mob:

http://www.ledshoponline.com/automotive_dashboard_bulb.htm

The T5 LEDs (which Im pretty sure the skyline has in the dash) are only $2 each... And they are the new "Wide Angle" ones as quoted above... As per the first post, there is 8 LEDS in the dash... so you can buy your own LED kit for $16 + $9 Shipping :stupid:

Note - I only just looked this company up now... sorry to those guys who have purchased through the group buy. Im sure those ones will come with instructions and will be better quality led's anyway :yes:

yeah man.. The leds are easy to fit!!! just plug and play items... only you need to make sure they are in the correct way!! one of 2 ways, lol one way wont work and the other way will ... they have built in diod so they will not blow if in reverse polarity!

but yeah the led kits we have are in sets of 4.. unsure if you would need more.... wouldnt think so!!

Had a look through the site listed above... and yeah they are just normal leds aranged in formation so they will give the best light hey can , because they are not full wide angle leds! as much as they say they are!!!

As the ones who ordered through me will see, that they are bright as hell! I know, i hooked one up to check it out , and i was BLIND for about 15min, lol.... well not fully blind but i could see a full on black area in my vision for ages...

they are $$$ because they are alot more powerfull, and they even have to have a small heat sink built in. they make that much light!!! Dont worry the heat sink WILL take the unwanted heat and WONT cause any problem, still not as much heat as a normal globe would make anyhow!!!

I could go on and on about leds, my car has alot of them... lol!!

the reason you need WIDE angle leds for dial app is because you only have 30mm or so from the point of light o the back of the dial its self.. now if you have a copy of a wide angle led you will see when they are on one point that is very bringt and dull around it!!!!

the WIDE angle leds have close to 180' of light chucked out so an even light will be showen on the dials!

If you missed out on the hi power led kits, ar maybe want more, the first led on that page listed above would be the best that site can give !! The rest are no good !

Im in the midlle of making a set of led tail lights for the R32!! using stock tails so you dont have the bling look of the aftermarkit ones. And just to have something full custom! then ill sell them!!

hahahah and no im not just going to bung a led blobe in the back... lmao

Cool!

Xizor, let me know what turns up in the kit :)

--

Also, the stuff was coming via snail mail yeah? Just need to know when to look out for it ;)

hahahaha.... they will be ok when the dial plates are over them! lmao

you can always go hard core like me and have so much stuff that lights up that people call it the star ship enterprise!!!

yeah it should take about 3 days max! well maybe 4!

cheers dudes.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
